About

A tactical switch: when a defense ETF (ITA) shows short-term strength, hold the three strongest defense names/ETFs; otherwise hold an equal-weight energy basket (OIH, XLE, UUUU, VLO, XOM). Simple momentum drives the rotation.
NutHow it works
Watch a broad defense ETF (ITA). If its last 3 days beat its last 7 days, defense is heating up. Then buy, in equal parts, the three defense-related stocks/ETFs with the best ~3‑month gains. If not, hold an energy mix in equal parts: OIH, XLE, UUUU, VLO, XOM. Adjust only when the signal flips or weights drift by ~3%.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets ~47% annualized return vs ~25% for the S&P, with solid risk-adjusted metrics (Calmar ~1.18, Sharpe ~1.34). It rotates between defense momentum and energy to ride trends with disciplined risk.

FAQ

A Composer symphony is an automated trading strategy that executes trades based on parameters of your choice. Some symphonies are similar to holding one ETF in normal conditions and rotating to a different ETF when market conditions shift, for example a 5% drop in the S&P 500, while others use complex rules with dozens of triggers. However, complex doesn’t always mean better. A simple, well-structured symphony can be just as effective as an intricate one. Learn more about how symphonies work here.
